Solicitation details, issuing organization, response deadlines, documents, and interested companies for this government contract opportunity.
AI Contract Overview
The contract mandates the production of vacuum arc remelted ingots with a 9-inch diameter, which are to be radially forged into a 4-inch diameter rod within a temperature range of 2100 to 1700 degrees Fahrenheit, ensuring precise metallurgical control during deformation. The resulting rod must then be sectioned into five equal parts, followed by an annealing process at 1250 degrees Fahrenheit to achieve the required microstructural properties. All work must comply with experimental alloy specifications, emphasizing material integrity and dimensional accuracy. The finished product is to be shipped to Aberdeen Proving Ground, Maryland, 21005, for further evaluation or integration into military testing programs. This is a sole-source opportunity issued under solicitation W911QX26QA185 by the Department of Defense through the W6QK Acc-Apg Adelphi office, with a response deadline of August 7, 2026, and is classified under NAICS code 331410 for metal forging and stamping. Primary point of contact is Jamie N White, reachable via email at jamie.n.white2.civ@army.mil.
